They're the ultimate London tourist selfie accessory, but the UK's iconic red phone boxes have been dwindling since mobile phones came along. Now, one company is bringing old and new technology together.

British company Lovefone has just opened the world's tiniest phone repair shop, housed in a disused phone box.

The Greenwich store — which will fix busted smartphones and offer free charging — has less than a square metre of floorspace.

That's enough room for a worktop, tools, an iPad and one repair-person. The company has plans for around 35 phone box shops by the end of next year.

They're not the first to transform the iconic booths. Telecoms provider BT offers charities and companies the chance to buy and repurpose a box for less than $2. Salad bars, libraries and high-tech offices have already sprung up inside.
